Think your dog has what it takes to be crowned royalty? Dress up your four-legged friend in their finest pickle-themed attire and enter them in our very first Pickle Pup Pageant at Cleveland Pickle Fest®! 

Whether they’re a dill-lightful diva or a brine-time top dog, your pup could be crowned the Prince or Princess Cleveland Pickle Fest® 2026!  The lucky winner will not only earn the title of Cleveland Pickle Fest® royalty but will also take home some tasty treats!

Open exclusively to dogs—sorry, humans!  Maximum of 15 contestants, one pup per household.  Costumes must be safe, respectful, and festival-ready.  The winner is crowned by the roar of the crowd, so rally your friends and family to cheer on your pup as they vie for their royal title!
